Painting In Therapist's Office

Posted by Rigby on May 29, 2005, at 23:14:50

Hi All,

Just a reality check here. My therapist came back from being away (who knows--maybe a vaca?) and propped up (not hung yet) against a wall is this **huge** painting. It takes up most of a wall. It's not a print but an original painting.

She asked if I thought it was distracting and I laughed and said, "Uh, it's big."

This reminds me of this other time where she had a bouquet of flowers in the middle of the floor--just sort of, it felt like, baiting me.

I guess I wanted to know if this is "normal" behavior for a therapist--seems like a painting this large is more about them than the clients? But maybe I'm just overly sensitive.

Also, FYI, the painting is just a huge mountain snow scene--somewhat gloomy.

Thanks for any feedback/thoughts.

Rigby
